The picture to fill the full screen at your disposal in the best possible quality

Post by Laszlo52 »

I would like the picture to fill the full screen at your disposal in the best possible quality, if when aspect ratio does not match with the screen aspect ratio. Do not leave any space on two sides (width) and height. How to set? Make the smallest possible distortion to complete the entire display at fill. I have images of mixed size and aspect ratio. My Wallpaper Slideshow Pro Version: 4.2.8 Build 1008.

How do you fill this out?

Hello,
when pictures and monitor have different aspect ratio there are only two solutions, leave colored bands or stretch/crop images.
The slider in Autoresize page allows to control the amount of crop vs stretch, it's not a matter of quality but of your preference. The limit value allows to the the program to decide whether to crop/stretch or display the picture with colored bands. Again it's only a matter of preference, if you wish all your pictures to be cropped/stretched set a high limit, if you only wish crop/stretch only those are not distorted too much set a lower limit.

I would also like to ask if the too high limit cannot cause too much stretching or cutting? Or, as far as possible, it only stretches and / or cuts as needed to fill the screen.

The limit is used by the program to decide is a pictures will be stretched/cropped or side bands should be added. So in particular cases yes, a high limit value may cause too much stretch, for example consider a panoramic pictures (aspect ratio near to 3:1) if you have a limit value of 78 it will NOT be stretched if you have a limit value of 123 it will be stretched. For pictures with more normal aspect ratio it doesn't change anything.
